Of course, Sigrid is correct. It would be much more entertaining to nail little Billy's feet to the road. Probably wouldn't stay upright though. We'd probably have to do it while he was still alive. As an alternative, how about pouring a large puddle of contact cement in a crosswalk? Eventually, something should get stuck in it.

They don't sell Crazy Glue (tm) in 5 gallon cans, but anyone with a brain would be able to figure out where to buy 1 gallon cans of cyano-acrylate (Crazy Glue (tm), for those who can't read labels). Extrapolating from Crazy Glue (tm) television advertising, a gallon of cyano-acrylate ought to be just about enough to glue a Boeing 747 to the bottom of a steel girder.

I believe that if you actually read the label, you would find that the trademark is in fact "Krazy Glue(tm)." One of us, sir, is an ignorant cretin.

Yeah, and if the train gets loose, you can save some leftover to glue your legs back on. Kent, the (I wanna drumstick, hold the cyano-acrylate) man from xanth.

Actually, thermite is a much better thing to use in this case than krazy glue. Many years ago, a trolley used to run in front of Killian Court at MIT. When the city announced that the trolley line was going to be shut down and the trolley retired, a few MIT students decided to play a little trick on the city.... When the trolley stopped at the MIT stop, about fifty students began delaying its departure by entering it at the front, getting change for a dollar (or some such thing.... I'm not sure of the exact details), walking out the back and entering at the front again. During this time, other student placed thermite between the tracks and the trolley's wheels. When the thermite was in place, it was set off. The trolley was permanently welded to the tracks, and the city had to cut the tracks up and bring in a crane to remove it. And there weren't even any pacifists involved! :-) -=> Jonathan I.
